Olive is the newest addition to our family. She is a spunky three-month-old Great Dane princess. She has a very independent spirit, which is to say that she likes to make up her own house rules. She loves carrots and litters the floor with their remains whenever possible. Another favorite pastime is de-fluffing her bunny, monkey, chicken, pillows, comforter ... and anything else she determines is stuffed to excess. She currently lives with a less than enthusiastic cat (Sterling), who seems not to share her joy in a little game she calls "chase the kitty". She loves making new friends and is fearless when confronted with larger (for now) dogs. Her short term goals are: learning to jump on the bed and getting this potty training thing down.

Well, even though she's a naughty baby, she sure is cute. A Hershey's kiss on puppy form. I love those two last pictures, she looks up to something. :) Kisses and cuddles for Josephine, and best of luck training her!

Olive you are a stunner. This is the prettiest Great Dane I have ever seen. Such a unique coat (watch out for Cruella) She is very sweet indeed. My dogs both enjoy Carrots and Lola is obsesses with defluffing Stuffed toys and pillows maybe she is part Great Dane LOL!

Olive, you are gorgeous. I love your markings. it is a puppy's lot in life to be naughty, that's how they learn, so you will eventually outgrow this behavior; tell your family to hang in there for a little while. It might be better if you stopped chasing the cat though. Tons of hugs, kisses, tummy rubs, and bikkies for you precious one.

WOW!!!! Olive you are stunningly beautiful! Those eyes, that coat, those markings, you have it all! You are one of the prettiest puppies ever to feature on Daily Puppy and certainly are a princess. I love Great Danes and I love you darling 11+++ biscuits xxxxx

Olive is absolutely GREAT!
she sounds like a joy--with a little puppy mischief thrown in.
Poor old Sterling!
Loads of love, biscuits, hugs, cuddles for Olive!
and while you're at it, give Sterling a hug from me!

Oh Olive, you are too cute. Our Lola loves to tear up everything (her mommy's library books are a special favorite), but she did just master potty training, so I know you can do it. (Time in her crate when we were away did wonders).

Awww, Olive, looks like you've taken a moment to rest from your de-stuffing and leaving carrot remains-it's very hard work! You are supposed to do adorable stuff like that; it's called, I'm a gorgeous puppy and I get away w/ everthing! What a cuteness and I love your Mommy's description of you!
Bless you, little one (soon to be BIG one).

That's right Olive, have a little nap after such a busy day!!! I loved reading about your puppy and have to say she is absolutely beautiful!!!! Love all the spots!! Sounds like you're having a fun-filled & busy life Olive. Good girl, 100 puppy biscuits and some belly rubs too!!! Love Storme & family, Manitoulin Is. On.

Oh Olive! You precious angel!!! I would never stop kissing you, ever. As a pup my Slevin ate his way through two sofas and three loveseats, so we understand how offensive those bad overstuffed things are to a dog with your delicate sensibilities. ;-)

Olive is a little(big) cutie!
Great danes are great pets!
They are great companions.
Well behaved(when they want to. LOL!), hard to potty train(use a crate. works wonders).
I have a 3yr old great dane that is also merle in color. I love the coloration, and get lots of comments as I'm sure you do, and will.
Love your dog!
Can I have her?

Olive you are just way to cute!!! Don't worry..soon you will be the biggest pup around!! LOL I love her coloring!!!! She also has very soulful eyes and a little spark that says mischief!!! I love her so please give her kisses from me!!!

Olive is a beauty, I love her green (or perhaps olive?) eyes!!! And, my previous dog also considered it her mission to de-fluff anything that was "stuffed to excess" :o) Tons of biscuits for Olive, she's an 11 biscuit dog for sure.

Beautiful girl! It's funny that big dogs have such a hard time figuring out how to jump on the bed. For the longest time my big puppy tried "stepping' up onto the bed, before he figured out it's easier to give a bit of a jump.
My your baby have a long happy life with you!

OMG Olive, you are gorgeous!! And those eyes are to die for. Our boxer Murphy truly believes that stuffing should be removed from ALL toys - the empty carcasses are much more fun to play with.
You two would get along great, even once you out grow him :-)
1,000 +++ biscuits for you Olive! Tell your mom we would love to see grown-up
puppy pictures of you. Tons of kisses for you!

Olive, you are lovely.And it's great to have patient, fun-loving folks to help with the potty traing thing and the home wrecking. Cats just don't get the "chase game". Lots of treats and tumy rubs for you and Sterling.

OMG she is beautiful. I love the gangliness of large breed puppies. they are sooo floppy and goofy. And, for her de-fluffing ritual, is is both hysterical, messy, and occassionally dangerous. I discovered with my baby, Thor, that it was the finally "flattened" skin he loved best and the fluff was just in the way. I used to defluff toys before I gave them to him but now they have these supersoft wonderful creations at Tractor Supply and Walmart (and I bet all the pet stores too) that are really really long animals (like a 2 ft long "beaver") that come whole but flat (instuffed) with squeakies at the head and tail - Thor loves them... try it!
God Bless,

I just melted when I saw this picture. Those EYES! Wow. Olive is a perfect name for her... (Olive color eyes) Beautiful. I'm not a huge fan of "big dogs" personally, but I would make an exception for Olive. :-)

What a beatiful little girl! I just want to hug her, Look at those come hither eyes. AHHHH the gentle giant, you can't go wrong with a girl like OLIVE. She is something. And who doesn't want to defluff something now and again. Lots of treats and tummy rubbs comin at cha from TENNESSEE...

Olive you are such a sweet girl and obviously very beautiful and very smart. Sterling is so lucky to have you as a play companion! Would love to see a picture of you a year from now when you are gloriously large!

Great Danes are really great dogs! But they are kind of hard to train. I have a 1 year old great dane she is a hand full! She looks just like this dog to. Same color and everything! Actually if u go on my account you will be able to see her (Roxanne) I remember when she was just that little pup!

Great dog! Gonna end up a mini horse, that one! :) I love big dogs; usually the bigger they are, the more passive they are.
No need for a superiority complex I guess, when you're taller than everyone else!

Oh Olive, those eyes of your are amazing and you are as well. We call it "plush toy homicide" in our house. Sounds as if it's fun to share life with Olive. She's stunning and quite a character. Hope you have a long, fun filled life together. But Olive, make sure you don't try to "de-fluff" the cat...maybe that's what he's worried about!

Olive is absolutely gorgeous! Every picture of her is so beautiful, it was almost impossible to pick a favorite! She may be a little dickens now and again, but it's worth it! We replaced the wood moldings on two door jams before our Goldendoodle outgrew her nautiness. Now she settles for stealing socks and dropping her ball in front of us at every opportunity! Enjoy your beautiful girl in the years to come. Bless you all with long, happy, healthy lives filled with love and fun! A million biscuits and tummy rubs! XOXOXo

Olive is absolutely beautiful and I just love her name! Your description of her was delightful. I am quite sure she will master the house training in no time. Oliver looks full of love and character. Hugs from Oliver and his Mummy in London, Ontario

Oh Olive, you are a darling!!! Love your coat with all the speckles! LOL! I would just love to give you a hug & bunches of kisses! I wish you a great puppy life and many more years with your forever family! They sound like a great family to grow up with!!

What a very beautiful girl........she will someday be as tall as a small horse !! I know someone who has 2 of them, and their backs are above my waist, and I am 5' tall !!
Wonderful, friendly dogs, Great Danes are !!

Olive colored eyes on this doll!!! I totally love the way u describe her personality!!! I wouldn't mind taking Sterling's place and getting chased around!! :D I have a 4 yr old dog at home who thinks nothing of latching onto the bottom (i think they are called cuffs, right?) of my jeans/ pajamas everytime i walk a little hurriedly! :D
